His vision for a more transparent, accountable, and corruption-free oil sector aligns perfectly with the nation’s aspirations for economic revitalization. The DIP has no doubt that with his strategic thinking, persuasive diplomacy, and unshakable integrity, the Senator will drive reforms that will not only curb oil theft but also strengthen Nigeria’s position in the global energy sector.
The significance of this appointment cannot be overstated. It marks the beginning of a new era in the fight against oil theft, one anchored on proactive governance, decisive action, and a commitment to the greater good.
